Chapter 159: Grand Celebration, Prelude to the Official Tournament (Harry's Trick, Heimer'
Xianglan, Changan, Frandi and Haimer are gathering and chatting together in a nearby bar after the preliminaries.
The four of them might have gathered together because they admired each other's strong strength, or perhaps, they gathered together to find out each other's weaknesses so that they could easily defeat their opponents in subsequent competitions.
Of course, human hearts are always unpredictable. In fact, the reason why the four got together was not the two reasons mentioned above. They just met at the Pokémon Center and on a whim, they decided to get together.
Chi Haimo: "I see, Miss Xianglan, your family is the family that protects the flamingo."
Xianglan: "Yes, and strictly speaking, Moltres can be considered my elder. After all, my ancestor had a sworn brotherhood with Moltres."
Hearing this, Changan asked in confusion.
Changan: "I'm confused. What about the last time you brought Moltres to the Tongxin Conference?"
Xianglan: "Ah, that, actually, after I sent the video tape of my first victory to Moltres, Moltres expressed that he was very interested in the Grand Contest. So, Moltres secretly flew to the Hoenn region to find me without telling Grandpa, wanting to experience the Grand Contest, but the result..."
Seeing the expression on Xianglan's face, Heimer guessed what was going on and spoke tentatively.
Chi Haimo: "Unexpectedly, it caused such a stir as soon as it appeared, causing Miss Xianglan's grandfather to immediately rush to the Hoenn region to bring back Moltres."
Hearing Heimer's analysis, Xianglan nodded and said appreciatively.
Xianglan: “Yeah, yes, just as you said.”
Although Xianglan is a loner by nature, she will express her passion to people she admires without reservation.
Xianglan: "If there is a chance, I would like to invite everyone to visit my hometown."
In response to Xianglan's invitation, Freddy said to Miss Xianglan in a gentlemanly manner.
Frandy: "Miss Xianglan said so. If I have the chance, I will definitely go."
Chang'an wanted to take another look at Moltres, so he agreed readily.
Changan: "I'll go too, Moltres, to visit."
Since Heimer wanted to go to the Kanto region, he answered very straightforwardly.
Chi Haimo: "Hahaha, yeah, if I have the chance, I will definitely visit Sister Xianglan's hometown."
Seeing that everyone was willing to come, Xianglan was very happy at the moment, but she did not show it. She just said to everyone lightly.
Xianglan: "Then I look forward to the day when you will come to visit my hometown."
The four of them were chatting happily. Perhaps because of their outstanding performance in the preliminaries, passers-by couldn't help but look back at the four of them.
Frandy: "It's getting late. Let's go back and prepare for tomorrow's game."
Chi Haimo: "Yeah, I also want to check if the Pokémon are in good condition."
Changan: "Me too."
Xianglan: "Well, let's end today's party here."
So, Xianglan planned to go back to the dormitory first and check the status of the Pokémon later.
Frandy originally wanted to walk back to the dormitory, but because Banyu came to pick him up, Frandy deliberately pretended to be a little drunk and fell into Banyu's arms. Seeing this, Banyu smiled helplessly and hugged him back.
Heimer and Chang'an went to the Pokémon Center together. They talked about their travel experiences along the way and had a very happy chat.
When Heimer and Chang'an were about to reach the Pokémon Center, they suddenly heard a loud exclamation. Out of curiosity, they secretly looked towards the source of the sound. Heimer discovered that it was Harry and Xiaoyao who were talking near the Pokémon Center.
(Oh, so, Harry would trick Xiaoyao into letting Xiangwei use the special move in the 64 to 32 match.)
Harry: "Oh! There's no problem! Xiaoyao! Because Xiaoyao, each of your Pokémon is very powerful, so no matter what trick you use, it will definitely win the favor of the judges in the end!"
Xiaoyao: "But, is it really okay to use this trick continuously?"
Hearing Xiaoyao's worry, Harry said with a flattering smile.
Harry: "Oh, no problem, no problem. You can use a variety of moves. This is the charm of this move itself."
When Harry said this, Heimer couldn't just stand by and watch Xiaoyao, so he immediately stepped forward and said.
Chi Haimo: "That's right, this is indeed due to the charm of this move."
Xiaoyao: "Hey! Heimer!"
Chi Haimo: "Hahaha, long time no see, Xiaoyao."
Before and after Heimer came forward, Chang'an didn't seem to want to get involved in this matter, so he just hid aside, waiting for Heimer from a distance.
Seeing Heimer, Harry's face showed a hint of displeasure. But after hearing what Heimer had just said, he forced a smile and said to Xiaoyao.
Harry: "Look, look, even Hammer said so."
Chi Haimo: "I haven't finished yet. Being able to use a myriad of moves is indeed due to the charm of the moves. However, if you just use the moves blindly, you are only showing the charm of the moves. In this way, perhaps, you will not be able to show the charm of the Pokémon itself."
Hearing this, Harry realized that Heimer was here to disrupt things, so he spoke to Xiaoyao in a somewhat provocative manner.
Harry: "Humph, you are afraid that Xiaoyao will use this trick to crush you in the next game! Let's go, Xiaoyao, don't get along with this guy."
After Harry finished speaking, he took Xiaoyao away. Xiaoyao didn't want to make the argument between them more intense, so she waved to Heimer and spoke gently.
Xiaoyao: "Then Haimo, I'll go first."
Chi Haimo: "Hmm..."
After Xiaoyao was dragged away by Harry, Changan slowly walked forward and asked in confusion.
Changan: "Why would you want to get involved with someone like this?"
Hearing this question, Heimer turned and looked at Chang'an and asked.
Chi Haimo: "Do you mean Xiaoyao or Harry?"
Changan: "I don't like the man in green clothes very much."
Hearing Chang'an's words, Heimer smiled a bit bitterly and said.
Chi Haimo: "Well, Xiaoyao is a very good person, so, seeing her getting deeper into the chess game, I can't just stand by and watch."
Changan: "The girl in red looks very gentle and kind."
Chi Haimo: "Yes, very gentle and kind."
For some reason, because of Xiaoyao, Hai Mo suddenly thought of Xiaoshun. At this moment, he had mixed feelings in his heart. How should I put it? It was a bit depressing. . .
Seeing this, Chang'an gently patted Heimer's shoulder. Chang'an, who was not good at smiling, forced a smile at this time and spoke gently to Heimer.
Changan: "Momo, let's go."
Chi Haimo: "Well, okay."
After the two returned to the Pokémon Center and checked the status of the Pokémon, they returned to the dormitory with peace of mind.
After bidding farewell to Chang'an and returning to his room, Heimer lay down on the bed weakly.
Only at this moment did he realize how difficult it was to completely forget someone. The slightest disturbance would bring back memories and make them brand new.
